Текст White Lies – Big TV
Текст:
Slow
I’m gonna settle down slow
Down to the hum of electric life and soul
Faith
But for the word and
The light of a bitter saint
And you can get me work?
But I can’t work for free
I’ve got a room downtown
With a bed and a big TV
If you can raise a star
From garbage on the street
Then you can make a modern life
For a modern girl to lead
Alone, I feel alone
When I’m living in a building
Like a tooth at heaven’s throat
True, it’s a beautiful view
But you know they’re gonna set it on fire
When they feel like something new
And you can get me work?
But I can’t work for free
I’ve got a room downtown
With a bed and a big TV
If you can raise a star
From garbage on the street
Then you can make a modern life
For a modern girl to lead
But why can’t anything be real?
A pill to break the drone of reverie…
So bring me to the hand of fate
The river or the new arcade
So I can wash the empty hour away
But why can’t anything be real?
Emotion like the movies feel…
So bring me to the hand of fate
The river or the new arcade
And you can get me work?
But I can’t work for free
I’ve got a room downtown
With a bed and a big TV
If you can raise a star
From garbage on the street
Then you can make a modern life
For a modern girl to lead
Cos I’m living in a room downtown
With a bed and a big TV x6
